Today is Link's birthday, and the boy is preparing to celebrate in his island's traditional fashion. But 'tradition' is soon cast aside when a giant bird and a gang of pirates come to his peaceful home…

Link sets sail with Tetra's pirates to reach the ill-rumored Forsaken Fortress. But when he arrives, he finds himself powerless against the many monsters roaming the halls. Stealth and secrecy are the name of the game if he wants to save his sister…

Having failed to save Aryll, Link finds himself in the company of the King of Red Lions, a living boat who offers guidance to the boy. Now at Windfall Island, Link learns of his true foe – the ancient evil known as Ganon – and is given a task to complete before he sets sail once more.

With all our preparations on Windfall Island complete, the time has come for our adventure to truly begin. In order to save Aryll from the Forsaken Fortress, we must first head to the east in search of a special gem…

Having learned of the troubles of Dragon Roost Island, Link enters into the caves leading to the island's peak. There he hopes to meet with Valoo and learn of what has caused the sky spirit's distress…

With the evils of Dragon Roost Cavern at last defeated, Link has gained the first key needed to fight Ganon and save his sister. Now he heads south in search of the second pearl, in the blessed region of the Forest Haven.

A missing resident of the Forest Haven has endangered an annual festival that ensures the future of the Great Sea (apparently). Link has therefore been charged by the Deku Tree to enter the Forbidden Woods and seek out the lost Makar, lest the Korok be lost forever…

Link's final test has risen from the sea: an enormous tower he must scale in order to prove himself worthy of a great power. Ancient traps and mysterious foes will challenge his skills and attempt to halt his journey forever…

After many adventures at sea, Link at last returns to the dreaded Forsaken Fortress. With sacred sword in hand, he must once again navigate these dangerous halls to face off against the monster that started this all…

Link's attempts to defeat Ganon have been thwarted, and the dark lord's threat still looms over the Great Sea. He must now scour the entire ocean for ancient powers and sacred beings that can empower him and his blade...

With the Sage of Earth awoken, Link has but one last step to bring back the sacred power of the Master Sword. Now he must seek out the temple of the Wind Sage, and obtain the assistance of one who can open the temple for him...

Link and the new Sage of Wind enter the second of the long-forgotten temples, filled with traps and dangers that neither could pass through alone. This final trial is all that must be overcome before the Hero once again challenges Ganon's might...

With the Master Sword at last reborn in its full glory, the time has come to return to Zelda's side. To do so Link must reopen the portal at the Tower of the Gods – and for that, he must first reforge the legendary Triforce of Courage.

Bearing the true power of the Hero, Link at last returns to the world beneath the waves to defeat Ganondorf once and for all. This path is filled with malevolent beasts, however, and numerous battles must be waged before he can reach his final fight…

Link plunges deeper into Ganon's Tower, where the greatest of evils await. Before his destiny can be fulfilled, he must face malevolent phantoms, transfigured demons, and the lord of darkness himself...
